    There has been a big issue with Videotron and the way that they modified their Extreme High Speed package. Originally not having a cap on bandwidth usage they decided to cap it at 50G per month but didn't change their advertising campaigns and didn't allow you to cancel your subscription without fees because of the change. For this reason I will never subscribe to any of their services again.

    almost...

    Technically it's a 100Gb "bi-directional" cap, though that does mean 50GB for upload, and 50GB for download separately, but yes it is a terrible villainous business practice that means they should be avoided.

    Why not go with Electronic Box ?

    They resell Videotron 7 down 850kbps up UNLIMITED.

    Best deal in Quebec, that's for sure. No throttling AND it's unlimited.

    I've considered going with Electronic Box when I move in July. If all goes well with the CRTC though I'd prefer to go with TekSavvy. Their price is hard to beat.
